At noon the next day, Huang Zhong led Wen Ping, Leng Bao and other generals and 80,000 troops to Chang'an, Zhang He, Gao Ran personally went out of the city to greet them, as soon as they entered the city, everyone smelled a strong smell of blood, obviously, a fierce battle broke out in the city recently, but, what makes people feel strange is that why the smell of blood is concentrated in the city?

"Two generals, you were calculated by Cao Jun last night?" Guo Jia said indifferently: "Presumably, it should be Cao Junjun who retreated first, leaving the empty city but secretly ambushing, burning the city at night and sneaking attack, I don't know what about the dead and wounded?" ”

Huang Zhong and the others were stunned when they heard this, but they saw that Zhang He and Gao Ran were full of shock, and in the face of Guo Jia's inquiry, after half a sound, Gao Ran said with a little shame: "I did fall into Cao Cao's traitor's calculation last night, burned the city and attacked it, and in a bloody battle, I injured 6,000 people!" ”

"Six thousand centaurs?" Guo Jia was slightly stunned, then came back to his senses, and said with a smile: "Ordinary people encounter such a battle situation, I am afraid that it is possible for the whole army to be annihilated, the two generals only lost 6,000 men and horses, it seems that it was arranged in advance, I don't know how the damage of the Cao army is?" ”

Zhang He responded: "Mr. Hui Junshi's words, last night's burning of the city, we fought bloodily, killing and wounding more than 8,500 soldiers of the Cao army, but the general of the Cao army, Xiahou Dun, was really brave and extraordinary, and he had made sufficient preparations in advance, so he led the troops to escape." ”

"Xiahoudun?" Huang Zhong groaned in his mouth, muttered it again, and suddenly asked out loud: "I don't know how brave this person is, how far has he been?" ”

For Huang Zhong, a veteran who can fight with Lu Bu for two or three hundred rounds without falling behind, Gao Ran and the others are naturally convinced, and when they heard Huang Zhong asking, Gao Ran immediately responded: "General Mo fought with him for more than 100 rounds, and he was lucky enough to defeat him, and he will fight again next time." The winner is five or five! ”

"Huh?" Hearing this, Huang Zhong's eyes couldn't help but light up: "I have long heard that the generals under Cao Cao's account, with the Xiahou brothers being the most powerful, Xiahou is like this, I want to come." That Xiahou Yuan should not be an ordinary person, you just look at Zhang He, Wen Ping, Leng Bao, if you encounter it, you have to deal with it carefully. ”

"No!" Regarding the strength of Zhang He and Gaolan, Wen Ping and Leng Bao still have a good understanding, and among the two, even Wen Ping, who has higher martial arts, may not be the opponent of the two. Leng Bao is still young, his combat power has not yet reached its peak, and the difference is even farther, and the person who can almost fight with these two people is indeed not to be underestimated.

Guo Jia said with a smile: "At the beginning, Dong Zhuo was in chaos, and Cao Cao was able to summon the princes of the Eighteenth Route to crusade against Dong Zhuo when the assassination failed, which shows that he is indeed not comparable to ordinary princes. After the Battle of Van Dong, he went to Merge State. Soon subdued Zhang Yang, collected more than 100,000 troops, successively defeated Xu Rong, Li Dao, Guo Yan, Zhang Ji, Niu Fu and others, captured Chang'an, and then gave up Chang'an, and set up a strategy of burning the city and attacking it. Calculating our Taiping Army, its strategy is so deep that it is really rare in the world, and it has become a hero in troubled times. ”

Everyone was stunned when they heard this. But he heard Huang Zhong say: "Cao Cao is so strategic, it seems that in the future, he will have to trouble Mr. Military Master to help." ”

Guo Jia smiled and said: "As a strategist, it is Jia's honor to be able to show his strengths and appreciate the abilities of the world's heroes, so please rest assured, General Jia's will definitely do his best!" ”

Huang Zhong laughed and said, "With Mr. helping out, what is Cao Cao afraid of?!" ”

Everyone led the army, slowly entered the city of Chang'an, last night fire, although the fire is not small, but the Taiping soldiers rescued in time, so the damage is not serious.

Not as good as Luoyang, almost destroyed by Dong Zhuo, although Chang'an has gone through several battles, and the forces of all parties have changed their lights, but because of the rush of time, it has not had time to cause too much damage, and the imperial city still maintains its previous glory.

There is a very tacit understanding, although Huang Zhong sent people to garrison the imperial city, but he and the others did not stay, in the end, they are all people in the ancient feudal society, even if they are capable, they always maintain a certain awe for the imperial power.

That night, Huang Zhong rewarded the three armies, but Guo Jia admonished at the banquet, and said: "Cao Cao left without a fight, this is not his style, I think there must be a backhand, Jia thinks a lot, I think at the moment we are not in a hurry to march into the state and pursue Cao Cao, but should be careful of Liangzhou, Han Sui and Ma Teng are not people who can be easily underestimated, if Cao Cao moves them, then, we are likely to face the Xiliang Iron Cavalry immediately." ”

"Xiliang Iron Ride?!" Hearing this, Huang Zhong and the others couldn't help but look stunned, especially Zhang He and Gao Ran, who were born in Jizhou, who had a deep understanding of the power of the cavalry, and even couldn't help but worry about it.

"The Liangzhou cavalry has been fighting with foreign clans all year round, and it can definitely be regarded as a strong soldier in the world!" Zhang He said in a deep voice: "Although our army has a battle formation against the cavalry, the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, so we have to prepare early. ”

"That's true." Gao Ran also said: "After all, although the battle formation is strong, but, in comparison, the cavalry moves briskly, and when the battle changes, our army will inevitably fall behind." ”

"Huh?" When Huang Zhong heard this, he couldn't help but groan, and after thinking for a while, he frowned and said: "Liangzhou borders foreign territory, and the cavalry is fierce and numerous, because our army is limited by geographical advantages, although there are 100,000 horses, but the cavalry is only 20,000. ”

"You don't need to panic." At this moment, he heard Guo Jia say indifferently: "Although the Xiliang Iron Cavalry is the best horse in the world, it is not invincible in the world, and it is not difficult to break its soldiers." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes immediately focused on Guo Jia again, but when they saw him raise his head and drink a handful of wine, he smiled with a little wine: "The two armies are fighting, the heart is the first, although the Xiliang cavalry is strong, but between Han Sui and Ma Teng, there is no harmony, Jia thinks that only one person needs to be sent to Liangzhou, and it is said that Han Sui and Ma Teng are against each other, and they want to break the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, but it is as easy as a matter of hand." ”

"Oh?" Hearing this, Huang Zhong hurriedly asked: "This matter is very important, I don't know who Mr. thinks should be sent to Liangzhou?" ”

"Chen Deng." Guo Jia said with a smile: "Before Jia marched into Chang'an, he had already sent someone to send an order to him, I believe that at this time, Chen Deng should already be on the way to Liangzhou, maybe, it may not have arrived!" ”

Indeed, at this moment, Chen Deng was indeed on the way to Liangzhou, when Guo Jia sent a secret letter, he immediately set off, but, hurrying slowly, still failed to arrive in Liangzhou before the Taiping army entered Chang'an, but fortunately, it did not delay for long, and the next night, he finally arrived in Liangzhou Jincheng.

Offering a letter of worship, soon, Han Sui summoned Chen Deng, although he had formed an alliance with the Cao army, but the Taiping army swept the world has become a trend, with more than one million troops, how can it be easily offended, Han Sui himself is also a rebel background, knowing that this kind of person is the most difficult to provoke.

"General Han, I've heard of the big name for a long time, and I only got to see each other today." Chen Deng smiled and said: "My intention, General Han should also be able to guess it, I guess I don't need to say anything, right?" ”

Han Sui said with an undeniable smile: "The Taiping Army is in full swing, the battle of Jieqiao, the coalition army of 300,000 princes is almost completely defeated, and now Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan are surviving, but they can't support it for long, so it seems that this Han Dynasty is almost dead, Mr. is here, presumably he has taken a fancy to the 50,000 Xiliang cavalry under the command of Han, but I can't agree." ”

Chen Deng said with a smile: "I know that before I came, Cao Cao must have sent someone to discuss an alliance with General Han and Ma Teng, and even General Han and Ma Teng have agreed to form an alliance. ”

Hearing this, Han Sui couldn't help but wonder: "Since you know, why did you still come to me, aren't you afraid that I will kill you, after all, I have already concluded an alliance with Cao Cao." ”

"I'm afraid, how can I not be afraid." Chen Deng said coldly: "However, General Han is too self-righteous, it is Ma Teng who is allied with Cao Cao, and General Han is probably just a foil." ”

"You-" Han Sui couldn't help but be furious when he heard this, "Mr. Chen, although you are a member of the Taiping Army, you are too sharp when you speak. ”

Chen Deng said calmly: "It's not that I'm too sharp, but General Han is too self-deceiving, don't forget, you are a rebel, and it was Dong Zhuo who recruited you at the beginning, do you really think that Cao Cao and Ma Teng's alliance have your share, there is naturally a charge, but in the future, it will not be necessary to share the victory" (to be continued..................
